************************************************

Come, now let's see the future,

Let's see the future as one.

Come now and let us be one,

So then we can see the future,

Through her eyes.

Ise, core naiu'r mema sa liope,

Naiu'r mema wa liope fan tri.

Ise core to naiu rina wi tri,

Daj gahi aiu kiu mema sa liope,

Facarehno frish masaham.

Oisaki

The sky had clouded over as the newly assembled group gathered under a tree in preparation for rain. The smell was thick on the horizon.

Under the tree Lina was dressing Gourry's wounds, which she inflicted and yet blamed on the girl resting uncomfortably on the tree's base, glaring at the crumpled body every so often.

The blonde Gourry sat still while Lina took care of him, staring at the sky that reflected his eyes except darker and more dangerous.

Over the red-haired girl at the base of the mighty oak stood Xellos, dressing the last of her head wounds and few scratches on her body. As he finished, Xellos gathered a couple of branches full of dark green oak leaves and brought She's head up to rest them underneath. "There," he said, walking over to where his staff was resting against the bark crawling with ants.

"Mou, I wish Amelia were here," commented a frustrated Lina tying the last of Gourry's bandages against his broad shoulder. Pulling it tight, he winced as she layed back against the tree next to him.

"Yea, me too, I miss her," Gourry sighed slightly in pain as he leaned back and closed his eyes.

"Not for that kuragi!" Lina gritted her teeth, opening one eye to look at her companion and then leaned back again and continued, "Even though I do miss her. It's just that her healing would come in handy right now!"

"But I thought you just healed me, Lina?" Asked Gourry, eyes open. "Oh, by the way, thank you!" He said happily smiling wide.

"Oh, no problem!" The sorceress said, closing her eyes and smiling wide until she noticed what she did and bushed while she pulled back looking at the ground. "I did! I did," Lina said in a quickened pace, "but she is much better at it than I because her magic is fully white! Haven't I told you this before?"

"Uh…I suppose," replied Gourry, half falling asleep anyway. As he rested his head against the hard bark and closed his eyes she couldn't help but smile, but then her voice became stern as she looked over to the girl resting by Xellos.

"And I haven't been able to come close to healing her, not that she deserves it for doing this to us!" Lina said exasperated.

"Oh yes, yes I agree. She DID do that to you after all!" The amethyst Xellos confirmed, relaxing on the oak.

"And how would you know?" Lina yelled directed at the priest. "Why are you here anyway? To cause trouble no-less! Huh," her red eyes went wide, "Did you do that to her? How did that happen!?!" Lina screamed, pointing at She.

"I didn't do anything! I didn't know it would happen," Xellos finished, leaning against his staff both arms extended giving the sense of being genuinely perplexed.

"What?!?" The fired Lina screeched. "Those sentences together contradict each other!!!"

"Fine," Xellos admitted leaning forward, "all I did was…" At that he disappeared.

"XELLOS!" Lina screamed. "Get back here you idiot priest!!!" She shouted to the heavens. "I'll, I'll, I'll…Amnbnm." She stifled an erupting scream from the felling of something hard landing on her shoulder, noticing it to be only Gourry asleep. "Kuragi," she thought smiling to herself, "he'll fall asleep anywhere! But, now to mention it I am pretty tired myself. That little imp packs quite a punch!" She sighed to herself and leaned back against Gourry, her eyes closing slowly. But before her eyes closed fully, something came into her vision.

"Boo," came a quiet, annoying voice of Xellos hanging upside in front of Lina.

Her eyes went wide and she screamed. "DON'T TO THAT YOU BAKA!!!"

"That." Xellos finished and pointed to the amazingly still asleep Gourry now on her lap.

Lina quickly looked down and turned bright red. "Don't fall asleep on me yogurt for brains!!" She yelled, shoving Gourry of her onto the roots of the tree.

"Oy, what's wrong Lina?" Asked a surprised Gourry.

"How many times do I have to tell you?" Lina continued her verbal assult, almost too much. "Why'd you have to…" But then the red-eyed girl broke down crying, sputtering incoherent sentences and even words, shaking herself from side to side.

"Whoa, Lina!" Gourry fully surprised exclaimed, going over in front of the weeping girl. "What's wrong!?"

"I…Ii…I…" Lina stuttered, her hands shaking, "I…ddon'tt knnow. I…"

"Lina!" Gourry grabbed her shoulders, "are you okay?!?"

"Please," Lina said in a dark and cold tone, "please don't touch me," she finished as she cowered away from him.

"Okay," he said quietly as he let go of her, watching her sit and clutch at her knees. "Lina…" he began in a worried tone, then quickly brightened, "Sou! It must be "that time of the month again"!" Gourry assumed happily, but as soon as he realized what she would soon do to him he pulled back quickly.

But she remained still.

"No," she said softly, but void of the contact of a soul. "No, it's not that. Ii…m fine, just something came over me." Lina continued, not looking up from the ground from which she stared. "I'm fine," she half whispered. "It just scared me a whole bunch!" Lina laughed, but as she laughed tears began rolling down her cheeks and her laugher split into short sobs.

"Lina…" The mercenary rolled out, tears growing slowly making his eyes of the sea swim. "I've never seen her like this before. No, not this bad," he thought, "what am I supposed to do? I have to do something…" As he decided to comfort her, and headed over to the frail maiden, Xellos butted in.

"Lina-san," Xellos quietly tapped on her shoulder.

"Why the hell do you have to do that!?!" She screamed at him as she turned around her head, face bright red.

"Look," he said calmly, directing her gaze to the base of the great old oak.

Continue and make your thoughts be heard.

As three sets of eyes gazed at the tattered girl a part of the base the onlooker's eyes went wide.

Blue-purple lights appeared around She, sizzling the air around. One could see that the girl's lips were moving, speaking silently somewhere back in her mind.

"Is she…" Lina began.

"Calling the faeries? Yes, it seems to be so." Xellos finished, smiling slyly to himself and waiting for what was to come from the child next.

"And what is she saying?" Asked the sorceress, wide-eyed and waiting, staring at the unfolding marvel.

"Now that I can not say," said Xellos shaking his finger. "It is the language of the faeries, but from what knowledge I have attained it might go something like this, for I believe this might me the Skain yla Mynihha, or "Call for Sympathy"," the priest explained, and then silently to himself, "this girl must be special…very special indeed. I'm glad it worked."

"It goes:

'Same uji sia fusuta oanik,

Kaisn wera risgno taf ouiertua ybi.

Wer copdi, ohn qagias fafuio,

Tar lial wera gin to wer lial codin.

Some of the great oaks,

Hear my prayers to the twilight dim.

I ask thee, oh mystic bringers,

To feel my pain and I will feel yours.

Fall codin nooeh bainil wera mareaha,

Codin seich viner bainil wera buohash eai,

Deair, ash mah, fliish codin kage bainil wera rinath,

Erw skain yla mynihha.

Lay your voices upon my breast,

Your green vines upon my clouded eyes,

Please, ash mah, bring your sword upon my throat,

I call for sympathy.'

Or at least that's all I know," he finished, smiling at the sparks of anguish and dark twilight energy coming up through the earth and down through the tree.

And then everyone was silenced, as the wee folk moved closer to the whispering maiden. The keepers of the mix of night and day, a realm no one but them should enter, touched the face of the sleeping She. The leaves below her then lit up in a light airy purple as mystic energy ascended to her body from the knowledge of the roots below and the branches above.

And as this energy created a bed of purple around She's head, her lips stopped moving as she wheezed and strained with pain. But it continued, and her body strained against it. "Aish!!" She let out shrilly, gritting her teeth. The faeries' eyes went wide in surprise as the magic faded and cracked, spraying the surrounding area with a lavender glow.

And it was gone.

After letting out a deep sigh, She opened up her eyes. They glowed an ire glow, wide as they were they looked as if she was possessed. But then the purple faded to red, and they were as dry as the night.

"That is what I believe," said Xellos turning to Lina, "That…huh?" He stopped, seeing the apparent gloom surrounding a Lina on her feet. "Lina-san?" He asked, knowing this had nothing to do with anything he was thinking.

"Yo, Lina!" Gourry yelled, coming over and slightly touching her shoulder. At the slight touch the redhead fell completely over and then quickly jumped up staring at the recovered girl.

"She…she…she…she looks like me!!! AHH!" Lina screamed in despair, throwing herself behind the tree she was recently resting on.

"What?" Asked Gourry blinking. "I guess she does! Woah, Lina!" He said, looking back to the tree.

"Ah, It's n…nothing Gourry-chan!" Brushed off Lina, shaking her hand up and down. She began to explain quickly, "it's just that at one time I sorta…well accidentally made a opposite mirror image of my self! Funny thing! *whispering* Eh, the other must be around here somewhere…oh no. Aand she was…"

"What?" Xellos thought as the frantic Lina continued, his face in a weird position before fazing out, reappearing in back of Lina. "Boo," he said softly by her ear.

"Aaah!!!! WHY THE HECK DO YOU HAVE TO KEEP DOING THAT!?!?!?" Lina twisted around ready to punch the annoying priest.

"It's my new thing," he replied after teleporting to safe ground a few yards away.

"Well, STOP!!" The furious redhead yelled leaning forward with her hands in fists pointed towards the ground.

"Lina," called Gourry, but she took no mind.

"I just wanted to tell you," Xellos lead Lina on.

"What?!?" She screamed.

"That that's not the reason she looks like you." He finished.

"Oy, Lina!" Gourry called again only to be ignored.

"Then what WOULD be a good reason for that THEN!?!"

"Yare yare, I didn't tell you?" Xellos asked looking surprised.

"What? That doesn't make sense! TELL ME WHAT, DAMMIT!?!?" Lina spit out.

"That the girl is your daughter!" Xellos smiled wide.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Well, there's that! Few! I didn't plan on it to end there but it became too long! How'd you like the ending then? *chuckles* Well, I must go,

love ya'll minna-san!

AN: Technical

The "Call for Sympathy" is a poem I myself made up. The "faerie language" is old Ma'Amare, my language also, as is the first poem. The difference is the first one is in current Ma'Amare and the second in old or archaic. One more difference is that the top one is in "gold" format (words) and the second in "earth" and "soil" format. (words)
